Is there a hidden rule with who pays for dinner?

If there is a rule, it would be something along the lines of whoever invites the other should offer to pay for it. Then, of course, the person being invited should argue, and then they work it out. All other things aside, though, I like being chivalrous , and if I ask a woman to share a meal, I always offer to pay for it.

We dated almost eight years and have been married almost 50 years, and I don't think she has ever paid for dinner. There must be a rule somewhere.

No, I assume I am paying for myself unless someone tells me otherwise. If it was a first date I would tell them I am paying for myself upfront so there was no confusion when the bill comes.

I split the bill. I usually just have a main so there's no way I'm paying for someone else's starter and dessert that they ate out of pure gluttony.

I always pay if I ask them out. When she asked me out, I offered to pay my half and she says no I feel obligated to sleep with her.

I always pay

Whoever makes the invitation, I'd think.

Generally it’s the person who extends the invitation, unless you suggest splitting the bill before going.

I was with the love of my life off and on for eight years and she never once offered to pay for dinner. She did, however, have a cute butt.

Usually the one who orders food. Been like that for years.

My mom always told me that if he is paying for an expensive dinner I need to expect that he wants sex LOL

No Pay, No Play

Split to the cents. I want to see y'all take out your €12.44 and struggle to count the little red coins

That'll be me then !!!

No, go with the flow

If he doesn't pay tell his daddy

Nothing hidden. Traditionally the man pays. Beta males split or make the woman pay.

Who ever ate the food pays for what they ate.

Whoever is shorter pays, so such as to compensate for their lack of height.

The male always pays
